EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the First World War era showcases a Comedy Patriotic Map of France, featuring a copy of the bread card from 1917. The card specifies that soft bread, calf bread, ball, split bread, and fancy bread are allowed for lovers, while stale bread is designated for others. Interestingly, old cracks are reserved for painters, with the most successful loaves being sent by those with hairy faces.
The image provides a glimpse into the rationing system during wartime and highlights the importance of food distribution in times of conflict. The intricate details on the map reflect both practical considerations and a sense of humor amidst difficult circumstances.
The couple depicted in the postcard adds a personal touch to this historical artifact, emphasizing themes of patriotism and unity during challenging times. The black-and-white photography captures a moment frozen in time, inviting viewers to reflect on the impact of war on daily life.
Overall, this print serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during World War I and offers insight into how communities came together to navigate scarcity and hardship with resilience and creativity.
